BILLY BUDD II

BILLY BUDD II (ex Saudade) is an impressive sloop rigged sailing yacht that has undergone a major refit in 2010 to her present owners specification for high latitudes sailing, exploration and adventure.

BILLY BUDD II achieves impressive performance results from a fast hull, carbon fibre mast and spars (completely overhauled 2010) and modern sails. She features a profusion of technical systems, many of which have been fully overhauled or replaced in the 2010 refit. Equipment has been selected for reliability during world cruising in remote locations and extreme conditions.

BILLY BUDD II is well designed and built by one of the best-known and respected yacht builders in the industry. She has been professionally maintained since new, and more recently had many of her systems brought up to date. Her recent adventures to high latitudes are testament to her pedigree of being a strong, safe, reliable world cruising yacht.
